Default what is that vibration? where is it from?

ok...whenever I'm sitting in my car at the red light...idling....the car tremble/shiver (or however you wanna call it) a bit irregularly...

Are you S behaving the same way? or what should I have the service people to check up? (if anything wrong)

Default For the most part I don't notice it....

Every now and then I do but doesn't bother me too much. Supposedly the S4 has some pretty aggressive cams so idle isn't as buttery smooth as say a Lexus LS430.

My 01.5 does this - I'm told it's the norm.
